I sit with 10/100 and in most cases it's enough, but whenever it's time for some download of OS updates it's still limiting.
As soon as there's a matter of streaming videos, like YouTube videos at 4k it will not work well with 10Mbps, quirky with 25 and probably decent with 100MBps. "UMAX in Korea, for instance, compresses its 4K p60 streams at 32Mbps", but even if the video stream is at half your bandwidth it's an average figure and in some cases it can peak at a higher level which may mean lost packets and a lowered image quality.
This to me indicates that the taxi system is artificially protected from clean competition and also be a source for corruption.
From Wikipedia:
In New York City and other cities, a "medallion" is required in order to legally pick up passengers flagging on the street. Medallions, or CPNC (Certificate of Public Necessity and Convenience), may also be sold in Boston, or Chicago, but in San Francisco—one of the few other cities that has medallions—the sale of medallions became prohibited by Prop K in 1978. This proposition was adopted to stop speculators from driving the price of medallions up beyond the reach of the people who provide the service—the drivers. In 2010, the City of San Francisco is attempting to allow the sale of medallions (for an estimated $250,000 each) in order to balance the City budget.
The quarter of a million price on a medallion smells like a price that opens up for corruption.
That's the Government way of trying to hide their activities by blaming your spam filter and ultimately you for not reading their decrees so that they can penalize you.
Well, Swedish have three extra wovels - Å, Ä and Ö. And they aren't pronounced the same as without the accents - far from.
And using "OE" instead of "Ö" is creating a completely different meaning and pronunciation in Swedish since we usually pronounce every syllable individually. Just dropping the accent characters is also bad. The word "vänlig" (Friendly) will become "vanlig" (Usual), so the accents are essential to the local languages.
The accents are therefore NOT a hangover from the past. The lack of accents in the English world is what's limiting.
Well, most European keyboards have the "dead" keys containing the accents like and `, so you push and then e to get é.
I'm not sure why they actually complain about the € character - it's not often used except when you write about money and it's only a few persons compared to the vast number of users that suffers there. For some reason I have the character instead of the $ on shift+4 - a character that I never use and I don't know who's using it.
Those that have set the keyboard standards seems to have ignored completely which characters that are most used by computer users.
Also realize that the QWERTY and AZERTY layouts are intentionally made to slow down typing - this because the early typewriters otherwise got a hammer jam.
Only if you have made enough mistakes in a language like Basic you will realize that there's a reason to code in better languages. Otherwise you will just get bad coders in a different language and nothing would have been achieved.
The language doesn't really matter, it's how you apply it that matters.
Every item built needs to be maintained to work in the long run. A dam doesn't see the same amount of wear as a road, but there's some work needed now and then.
When it comes to infrastructure it's a continuous work since people have a tendency to move around.
Many electrical substations are connected via radio to a control center. But most control centers have internet access. And today there are a lot of possibilities to intrude on the radio links due to the large availability of cheap radios on the net.
Go buy a Baofeng radio (or what they are called this week), program it to an unauthorized frequency. Oops, that frequency was used by the power company for controlling your local substation. Once in a while when you transmit you may actually disrupt something at the substation. In most cases it would be harmless but if things goes bad you cause a power outage locally.
That's one thing that amazes me - I'm from Europe and overhead lines are only used out in the boondocks. As soon as you are in a village then they are put below ground, same with telephony and internet where I live. But in almost every village and town in the US they are above ground cluttering the view and put at great risk for influence from the elements, accidents and possible sabotage.
Not to mention downsizing of workforce so that maybe only 2 persons understand the whole infrastructure network while the rest are hired by the hour for short term work. Documentation only reaches to a certain limit, it shows how things was done, rarely why.
It's not very different from the Nigerian Prince mail scams we see now and then. It's a bait that can be used to reel in Node.js under the cover of Microsoft.
I think that Microsoft needs to get their engine spread more than what Node.js needs the Microsoft engine.
However I also see a danger here - if Microsoft gets their engine as default into Node.js then they can change the licensing terms and effectively block Node.js from being viable. This has happened before, and will happen again. It smells like bait.

Only way to avoid getting positioned is to remove the battery. Don't trust flight mode or sim removal, especially not sim removal.

And why do they need those medallions?

Unfortunately in some cases it may actually be a problem, and at worst the change may transfer into an insult.
Not sure why alt+143 (Å) would screw up your browser, mine works fine.
It's only supported for a few characters. Probably to avoid a lot of spam posts in Korean, Russian or Greek.
All caps is a sure indicator of spam mail.

Well, that's going to be interesting since it's not an accent, but Salvador Dalí has an accented i.
Only when you talk about English, in other languages they may change the meaning of a word completely.

Not all of Europe, Sweden wasn't involved and powerlines are buried here as well.
No, it wasn't any difference, it was started roughly simultaneously on both sides of the Atlantic, in the 1880's, so that's actually not a reason.
The reason has more to do with the willingness to realize that the long term maintenance costs are a lot lower with buried lines.

Ever tried to describe to someone below the age of 10 why you need to declare variables?

But C++ and Java isn't for beginners. You need to have a certain level of understanding of programming before you can use them.
In the 80's we started with Basic (not a good language really, but it was a good way to get kids started)
I think it's about getting control of node.js in order to take it off the market. Not to take control of how it's used on the market.

Do you have any documentation available on that?
Not only benchmarks but also perceived performance by the user.
